As well as
20 organ sonatas and
seven collections of
stand-alone organ pieces
with opus numbers,
Rheinberger composed a
whole range of smaller
works for organ methods
or organ collections for
his favorite instrument,
mainly at the request of
colleagues and
friends.
The Fugue
in F minor (JWV 3) on
three themes shows the
remarkable contrapuntal
skill of a composer then
aged just 14 (1853).
Rheinberger dedicated it
to his organ teacher
Johann Georg Herzog, who
remained a follower of
the German Bach
tradition.
